Well I am finally at the point where I am going to start purchasing my performance parts from jegs and ebay. But it seems the first thing out of vendors mouths is "how many horses you expecting to the rear wheels". Then I am like "I dunno, Ijust wanna be able to kick arse". Well that response does not seem to work for some vendors. So I am asking you guys for a lil advice. What kind of HP should I look to make from a 84 stang, that will see some highway use (I tend to cruise on the highway) and lots of go get groceries and to the gym action. Plus the occasional ricer and camaro arse-whoopins I want to be able to hand out. I have decided on BBK long tubes and BBK pipes, other than that I am still searchin for my perfect mix for the top of the engine. But I need to know how much hp do I want to put out? ANd what is a good reasonable number for a daily driver. DOnt want to say "500 horses" and look like a arse. And dont want to say "300hp" And get beat by my grandma's studabaker.
